Only 3 teams in the East would definitely make the playoffs in the West. Every other team outside that top 3 is either .500 or worse against the West (except for Miami who is two over). And, if I was a betting man, I’d bet a lot of money that Portland will lose their 1st round series again. 24-22 against the West and 21-5 against the East. Only reason they are sitting where they are is because they beat up on the East.
I can’t believe Giannis is going to win an MVP just because the bucks padded their win total against these trash eastern conference teams.
It's a fair point. You look at the East standings and there are three teams with sub-.300 winning percentages. The West has only one.
better yet, remember when durant was a lone star on the okc in 2013, member how far he got? he got swept in the 2nd round by the grizzlies this is how really good this guy is...
